Great to see you getting on the road. I'm starting my r53 JCW rebuild in the next few weeks. I'm sure I'll be using a lot of your videos and ModMini's. Thanks a lot!

Since you seem to enjoy the torture, I have an idea for the winter!! Lift kit, AWD conversion, off-road tires, and it's ready for the snow!! Lol

@@RegardingAutomobiles I had a standard R52 soft top. The supercharger whine was nowhere near as loud as yours. Yours sounds fabulous. I've sold mine now but, my god, I loved that car!

I put an Alta adjustable rear Anti Sway bar along with poly bushings into my 2006 R53 (my fourth) and it transformed the handling over the previous three. Dropping the rear subframe was pretty easy and worth the effort. I would recommend starting there. My trailing arm and bushings are stock with 47,000 miles from new. I have the Powerflex bushing ready to go but I would prefer to do that work on a lift if possible.

Any idea if the Alta weighs more or less than the factory anti-sway bar?

@billcunningham8485 Жыл бұрын

@@RegardingAutomobiles heavier as it is thicker but it only amounts to a few pounds. Worth it. Next level handling unlocked.

Love the channel , did you keep the original super charger ? Anything special you did for the heat?

@RegardingAutomobiles Жыл бұрын

Thank you! Yea it is the supercharger off my original engine so it’s a facelift version. 15% reduction on it so I am hoping the new Intercooler, which is bigger, will keep everything cool. After some track time next spring I see it is getting too hot then I’ll likely look at an oil cooler.
